the long surprise party

A client of mine celebrated her dad’s birthday recently with a big surprise party, and was nice enough to call me to capture it. The party was at Meribah which is the retreat house for Chaminade and was a lovely location.

I think the surprise was really a surprise, which actually surprised everyone that they were able to pull it off.

They are a really fun family and while I got some ‘nice, posed’ shots, this one with them laughing is still my favorite.

And it looked like everyone had a great time, which is what parties are all about! Thanks so much for having me along to capture the evening- hope you like the pictures!
